  Are we as a community gonna take responsibility, when are you the player gonna take accountability? If never then quit ya crying and play the game, if you got a problem with it go play overwatch where you will have the same issue

  @Blizzard_Ent please fix your game? I've been suspended enough times because of your servers. It's ruining my experience of overwatch 2

  @ThatOddGuyDave From what I gather the issue is Overwatch 2's structure doesn't allow it to be ported over as is, but they should still be able to simply remake it.

  @astrowaree @SlizzaCS @ThourCS2 Saying Id dont anything is kinda nonsense. Premier has million times more cheaters. Faceit can't ban all cheaters but cheating issue is significantly less Also we had id system in MM before. The phone number. Valve removed it to help cheaters. Just like they removed overwatch

  @Pirat_Nation And I'll double down in not caring about any of Sony's live service games, until they make something more interesting then another Apex Legends, and Overwatch clone.

  @enchandted Apparently they "lost" the files and data to this while converting to Overwatch 2, and the only way they can "fix" it is by completely remaking it. Don't know why, but I'm not buying that excuse of theirs.

  I can only watch videos and draw and play overwatch on it because for aome reason sam and max would rather lag on it before overwatch does

  @yesPotatoe_ did your overwatch crash too

  @lavindarr overwatch and genshin community is an expert in making ships that make nosense or have no chemistry between two characters who dont even know each other just to avoid making hetero ships. i wouldnt see any problems if they didnt judge those who dont share the same ships as them

  Problems of an Overwatch multishipper: - someone likes a ship you like - they dislike a ship you like - contemplate whether you should interact or not

  @EmperorKermit @evolved117 most characters in Overwatch don't have sprint,just like most of them don't have any clamber-like abilities and it's irrelevant if it's part of the core or not,the real issue with it is that it has no actual purpose other than to copy what others are doing sprinting doesn't add

  anyka✨ (@_celestialss) reported 28 minutes ago

  @KurtJP35 I can a guarantee they saw the success of Overwatch since this happened in 2017 and pivoted because of that. They truly are scared of doing their own thing and would rather chase trends in service of making more money

  @_wave00 Nah i think this game has fundamental game design issues, overwatch been catering to casuals for ages and TF2 aint even balanced at all and they got consistent player counts lol

• 
  HaloiOi (@Juicebox343GS) reported 31 minutes ago

  @HubPointless Also if there were ever a topic not spoken about enough, it's this exact issue here. Counter Strike, Overwatch, Valorant, Doom is basically Halo 3 customs with player speed at 150%! Sprint is a gimmick that's fun, but it was never Halo's core experience. Halo 3 was that in spades

  @Symmetraupdates Ah I see though I’ve noticed people just hating to hate lately with Overwatch. Oh? Same issue too? :(

  Anyone having trouble joining an overwatch game? I tried two times in qp and my screen froze, then I tried arcade and it worked but the server kicked us out cuz “there wasn’t enough players” HUH??

  Overwatch please fix matchmaking in Stadium. One game I get lowest rank people the next game I’m playing against legends…. If your not grouped your not climbing plain and simple.

  @JimSerna1 @StreetFighter I don’t believe so. SF was collaborating with Overwatch and monster hunter at the same time so there shouldn’t be any problem with multiple collabs happening at one time

  is there another replay bug? i cant load any replays on overwatch and i get an error

  I need a Reinhardt or any other big buff tank main to play with me in overwatch it would solve my daddy issues

  Played my first comp game in overwatch in awhile won but someone at the end said streak broken and i knew I had to get off after that one win

  @CarlHigbie One or two overwatch plinks would solve a lot of troubling issues.

• 
  Castlehair (@Castlehairs) reported 55 minutes ago

  @yoshi12370 All those are big reasons why I stepped away from the game. The whole 2 year wait into overwatch 2 which was met with many many broken promises made me just not want to ever really play the game anymore. So sad because there was so much potential and I feel it will never be met

  @arceus227 @JunosHyperRing @PlayOverwatch Overwatch isn't fun, that's the problem, and como don't give you rewards, actual rewards for ranking up, the only progression is the battle pass, which if yo don't pay get nothing

  @acrondle2 Were these guys Overwatch fans? Because it may not be an issue of your voice, but rather just a lack of knowledge on their end.

  @The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.
